House of Commons Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee survey on food access during the COVID-19 disruption

The House of Commons Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee, are seeking a range of views from the public on whether the response of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) to the coronavirus has been sufficient, and to suggest areas where more support is needed.

As part of its inquiry into food supply during the Coronavirus pandemic, the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (EFRA) Select Committee today launches an online survey, inviting the public to share their experiences of accessing food during the outbreak.

The survey, which can be completed in under 10 minutes, is available on the Committee’s website until 28th April, and encourages constituents from across the UK to submit their accounts of shopping for food online or in person, receiving food parcels, or accessing food banks since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak.
